I mean, technically it is. But so is fascism. Both have the government tightly controlling everything, including industry. But socialism/communism (in theory) works for the good of the many, while fascism always only works for the good of the few.

Oh wow, cool info! Their calls were a lot deeper! They were also a lot less bothered by humans, letting me get really close.

Because the Verfassungsschutz sucks, but that's not the fault of the Bundesverfassungsgericht.

And they repeatedly declared laws of the government unconstitutional, not matter which parties were in the coalition at the moment.

Also, Hitler had to declare a state if emergency to gain the absolute power the Supreme Court has just handed to the US president.

Suffice it to say, something lile this is impossible now in Germany. The justices of our highest court, the Bindesverfassungsgericht, can only hold the job for 12 years and can be no older than 68. They are also always equally voted in by two different branches of the government and need a two thirds majority for any decision.

Our democracy isn't without faults, but this is probably our strongest bulwark against another descent into facsism.

Some of you may die, but that's a risk I'm willing to take!

That's still very early stages, there's no reason why he shouldn't do a movie in the meantime.

Plus, a lot of them got Covid without a vacchine and that disease attacks your nervous system and can shave of between 3 to 6 IQ points with each infection. So they are likely even dumber now than they were before Covid.

Fun fact: Biden is actually too old to be a boomer. So is Trump.

Oh, don't worry, most European countries are on their way to become just as shitty as the US.

The campaign of the first one is pretty short (once you figured out good strategies for your people's survival).

Fascism is the logical endpoint of capitalism. Just look up the largest German companies, then what they did between 1933 and 1945.

He also merged with Deadpool for a few minutes after both where turned into soup. https://static1.srcdn.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Logan-Deadpool-Gross-Hybrid-in-Wolverine-23.jpg

"Sooo, this is awkward," says the cat closest to you. "But does your name happen to be Bob?"

From a world power to needing soldiers from North Korea to keep a war running. Russia has proven to be a joke of a country. Not a good one though.

You can strike out Blade. Just lost another director and is firmly stuck in development hell. Rumour has it Mahershala Ali has also rejected a script that had him be a side character in his own movie, as a mentor for a bunch of teenage vampire hunters.

I hope that "popular song but slowly because scary" trend in trailers is going to die soon.

That said, Hugh Grant channeling Jigsaw? Count me in.

I mean, TV series have pretty much become that. I just wish there were more mini-series that are self-contained instead of promising stories fizzling out by season 5 or getting canceled prematurely.

Yes, by Saruman who tried to create a new Mordor.

I get why it's not in the movies, but all the hobbits turning into absolute badasses after their homes are threatened was amazing to read.

The Shire was unprotected. Sauron is not going to waltz up to one of the last Elven strongholds because someone speaks Mordor. But he might send a bunch of orcs when someone uses it in the middle of nowhere all of a sudden.
